Redis Cache Pricing

How Azure pricing works

Azure Redis Cache gives you the ability to use a secure open source Redis cache, managed by Microsoft, to build highly scalable and responsive applications by providing you super-fast access to your data. You also get to leverage the rich feature set and ecosystem provided by Redis while also getting reliable hosting and monitoring from Microsoft.

Azure Redis Cache

Azure Redis Cache is offered in two tiers:

Basic – A single cache node (ideal for development/test and non-critical workloads).

Standard – A replicated cache in a two-node Primary/Secondary configuration. We manage automatic replication between the two nodes, and offer a high-availability SLA.

Support & SLA

We provide technical support for all Azure services released to General Availability, including Azure Redis Cache and Managed Cache Service, through Azure Support, starting at $--/month. Billing and subscription management support is provided at no cost.

Service Level Agreement (SLA): Azure Redis Cache and Managed Cache Service offer a guarantee of 99.9% connectivity between the Caching endpoints and our Internet gateway. To learn more about our SLA, please visit the SLA page.

Other Azure Cache offerings

Azure Cache is a family of distributed, in-memory, scalable solutions that enables you to build highly scalable and responsive applications by providing you super-fast access to your data. In addition to Redis, we also offer the following types of Azure Cache:

Managed Cache Service: Built on AppFabric Cache. This is a dedicated service, currently in General Availability.

Managed Cache Service

The concept ‘scale’ refers to the number of units of a particular type that a customer can purchase. It determines the maximum cache size provided by each tier, e.g. Basic can provide up to 1 GB, Standard can provide up to 10 GB and the Premium can provide up to 150 GB.

Upon reaching the scale limit, you have the option to purchase a higher level tier that better fits your cache size needs. For example, after hitting the 1 GB limit on the Basic tier, you would need to purchase the Standard tier.

We don’t support the ability to create a managed cached in the portal today, you will need use the Azure Powershell SDK to create a cache. (The instructions can be found here.) Once you have created the cache you will have a full experience in the portal to manage it. We are currently evaluating options how to best bring this functionality back.

In-Role Cache

No. In-Role Cache can be deployed as a service alongside other application code in your web or worker roles. However, you can choose to have worker roles specifically dedicated to the cache and pay normal Cloud Services rates, which vary by the type of role and the role size.

All Cache Services

We recommend new development use the Azure Redis Cache due to the flexibility it offers. It is based on the open standard Redis protocol that is supported by many programming languages (C/C++, .NET, Go, Java, Node.js, Objective C, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby and over 29 more languages). This allows it to be used by nearly any workload you might build on Azure.
